A Troper rianlr for the Republican
rialform.
Os Wednesday next our State Convention
will meet at Williamsport to nominate a can
didate for the Supreme Judgeship, and to pre
sent a platform to the Republican party of
TennaylTania. Upon that Convention will
rest the responsibility of defeat or victory in
October next. With them the decision of the
contest resides. Nor in making this state
ment do we intend to limit it In any sense.
We mean literally what we say. It should
Select a thoroughly good, upright, able,
and well-known gentleman for our candidate.
If it also adopt a platform composed of
clear principles of Justioe and right, and
favoring reform, we will be far in advance of
our opponents. We must have a platform
Which Will carry the cand idate, and not, as
With the Democracy, one which will weigh
down the candidate. If these two wants are
Bnpplied by the Convention, the victory is ours.
We do not propose to suggest any one as a
Suitable person for the nomination. We have
nojpersonal prejudices; so that the candidate
possesses the elements of strength, he will be
heartily acceptable. But in regard to the
platform, we desire to throw out a suggestion
to which it behoves the Convention to give its
attention. We desire to see a plank adopted
Which will favor the call of a convention to
revise the Constitution of the State. We de
sire that the Republican party shall be put
fairly before the people, pledged to favor this
needed reform. The only way to have all the
defects in that instrument removed is by a
Constitutional Convention. The people, in
delegating to their representatives certain
power under a constitution, reserved for them
selves the right to alter or utterly repeal that
instrument, should they ever see proper. All
changes must ultimately receive the popular
assent, and every amendment to be made
must be voted on directly by all the people,
lefore it can become part of the supreme law
Of the State. Now the preliminary steps to
Such an amendment are such as to seriously
eopardize its ultimate success. By a provision
Of the law two successive Legislatures must
assent to it before it can be submitted directly
to the people. In certain cases the preliminary
assent cannot in all probability be obtained,
although it is required in justice. Such a case
is now before us. The Legislature has be
come a corrupt body. , It is steeped in all the
dregs of low political trickery. Proper bills
cannot be carried without money be paid, and
a ring, or rather a series of rings, rule its
actions, instead of the publio interest. The fact
that the Senate consists of but thirty-three
members is of itself a premium on corruption.
Half-a-dozen can, on any question, hold the
balance of power, and demand acquiescence to
their extortion. What is needed is some reform
Which will break up the corruption, and the only
Way by which it can be secured is by increasing
the number of members. Instead of having the
Senate consist of thirty-three, let it have one
. hundred, and the House three hundred mem
bers, and then all fears of bribery will be re
moved. It would take the fortune of a Roths
child or a Baring to buy up a majority of
three hundred, and all the money iu the
world could not keep the fact a secret. It is
this plan which is recommended in New York
by David Dudley Field, who says that "three
hundred members of the lower House is not
one too many." Yet before this step in favor
of official purity can be taken, an amendment
to the Constitution is needed. What hope
can we have to get the assent of the ring itself
to any such change f Will they vote away
their power, " and virtually provide for the
prevention of their extortion in the future ?
Clearly not. All such reforms would be de
feated in the Legislature, yet it is required by
the publio, and is certainly needed to save the
fair fame of our State.
This is one amendment needed which calls
for a convention. Again, the extension of
impartial suffrage to all our citizens is de
manded by Justice and the enlightened spirit
Of the age. And many other issues which will
occur to our readers, which can only be satis
factorily reached by a general election of suoh
a body by the people. We therefore earnestly
hope that the Williamsport Convention will
deolare itself in favor of such a step, it will
place our - party .. on the side of reform.
The people the good, sensible, solid people of
the Commonwealth have never turned their
hacks on any step looking towards the correc
tion of offloial evils." It will be a strong ground
for argument, in the campaign. New York is
already at work, and our Constitution needs
revision just as badly as that of the Empire
State. Our opponents have committed an
oversight. Let ns profit by their neglect, and
Btrive to remedy the corruption which they
are willing to tolerate.
A Uniform International Currency.
Wa published in Thb Evening Telegraph of
Friday a letter from Mr. S. B. Ruggles to
Hon. John Sherman, in regard to the proba
bility of Congress taking axlih an action as
WOUld seoure a uniformity to the currency of
Great Britain, France, and the United States,
trltk the reply of Senator Sherman. , The
eubjeot is one of great interest, but it has as
- yet . attracted little attention . on this side
of the water. A desultory sort of discus
sion la regard to arranging a metric system of
HIE DAILY
weight and measures baa indeed been kept
up for some time, but the idea of a currency ,
wliii h would pass in Oreat Britain and France
without discount is new to na. From the
letter published, it will be seen that the plan
is perfectly feasible. All that is neoossary is
to so arrange the value of our gold coin as to
make it an even decimal of the British pound
sterling and the French frano. A com
mittee on the subject, representing the
five great powers, has been for some
time in session in Paris, and the opinion of
that body seems to be in favor of adopting the
twenty-five frano piece (gold) as the unit by
which other specie be measured. It would
require but little alteration. Mr. Sherman
states that "America would have to reduce
her gold dollar three cents and Great Britain
her sovereign two pence." By this means we
would have a uniform currency. Five francs
would exactly equal our dollar, and five of
our dollars be equivalent to a British pound
sterling. Thi3 would avoid, to a great extent,
the inconvenience of discount and calculation,
would simplify matters, and enable an Ameri
can to calculate with certainty whether or not
he is receiving the proper change when
abroad a desideratum of which only a travel
ler determined not to be cheated can under
stand the value. The matter deserves the
early attention of ou r authorities.
The Spirit of the Age.
That tendency of the world's thought which
we call the spirit of the age is undoubtedly a
liberal and progressive one. We find .every
where, under all forms of government, that
the masses are struggling upward; men are
claiming and enjoying more rights; an equali
zation of privileges and blessings is going on;
the truth that governments exist for the peo
ple, and not the people for governments, is
daily becoming better understood; and the
general tendenoy of opinion and action is
towards a larger measure of publio freedom
and individual independence. Even despots,
who would gladly stem this ever-increasing
tide of the world's thought, are compelled to
respect it and to yield to it. Aristocracies,
that cling with a death-grip to their
special privileges, are daily compelled to
yield point after point to the masses,
lest, by holding on to all, they lose all.
Everywhere, in all directions, the people are
looming up as the grand and governing power
of the future, while classes, orders, and favored
individuals are sinking out of sight.
It must not be supposed, because the United
States from their foundation have had osten
sibly a republican form of government, that
this great world-movement of progress and
liberalism is not manifested in our own coun
try. On the contrary, in no country on the
face of the globe have popular rights achieved
grander triumphs over the forces of despotic
and aristocratic privilege, than here in our own
country during the past six years. In 1861,
the United States exhibited a praotical condi
tion of society which, in many respects, was
more essentially despotio than almost any
other in the world. Four millions of its citi
zens were held in a state of chattelhood
absolute and unrelieved. It had just been
solemnly proclaimed from the bench of our
Supreme Court that all these millions of
slaves, together with the entire race to which
they belonged, had no rights that a white man
was bound to respect. Such was the construc
tion put upon our organio law by our highest
judicial authorities. Emancipation, by the
aotion of the General Government, was almost
universally conceded to be both Impracticable
and illegal.
Behold the contrast I Not a single slave
remains in ail the broad territory from the
Ohio to the Gulf, and from the Potomao to the
Rio Grande 1 The Constitution, which was
supposed to sanction the acoursed institution,
now expressly forbids it. The Judge who out
raged justice in the atheism of the Dred Scott
decision has gone to a dishonored grave, while
the place he oooupied 13 now filled by a Chris
tian statesman and jurist, who believes in the
absolute equality of all men before the law.
The emancipated millions have nearly all been
enfranchised, and are expressly recognized by
law as citizens of the United States.
Where has there been greater progress than
this f In what nation of ancient or modern
times have popular rights progressed with
more magnificent strides f or where have aris
tocracy and class privilege reoeived a more
complete overthrow? Our late civil war, philo
sophically considered, was simply a contest
on a grand scale between the principle of
freedom and'progress and that of slavery and
stagnation. It was the true spirit of the age
in conflict with the spirit of bygone ages. It
was democracy and despotism appealing to
the arbitrament of physical force.
It is a little strange, as a matter of specula
tive observation, that the party in ' this
country which arrogates to itself the name of
Democracy should have been all along,
and is now, arrayed in hostility to
this enlightened and liberal spirit of
the age. Under the name of Democracy
it has fought the battles of despotism. It has
sturdily and doggedly resisted every exten
sion of popular rights to the masses, and
stranger than all, despite the complete over
throw of the slave power in this oountry, and
the general progress of liberal principles
throughout the world, the Democratic party
to-day seeks success through the champion
ship of reaction and retrogression. It seems
to suppose that tiie tide of the world's thought
and sentiment, sweeping on bo grandly to its
destined end of equal popular rightB, can be
resisted and turned backward. In this State
we have receptly beheld this party nominate a
Chief "Justice npon a 1 platform of avowed,
injustice i disgrace to the nominee who con
sents to stand upon it, and to the party that
made it. ;
. Yaia hope I The popular prinoiple is des
EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY,
tined to a full triumph. There may be eddies
on its bosom, but the grand current sweeps
irresistibly onward. Men and parties may
struggle against it, and contend with it, and
sink beneath it, but they cannot stop it.
For good or for evil, the principle of govern
ment by the people and lor the people is
bound to have a full, fair, and unimpeded
trial.
An Interview with Mr. Thaddcns
Steven.
Theuh is an anonymous aocouut published
in the Union Springs (Miss.) Times, purport
ing to narrate an interview between the editor
of that paper and Mr. Thaddeus Stevens. The
story is also vouched for by a certain person
who is also nameless, and contains statements
which we think make it bear on its face evi
dence of falsity. After narrating a few unim
portant details, it concludes:
"I here Interrupted, feeling that he was dodg
lop. aud asked the tollowlug question:
"KuppoHe, Blr, Alabama should organize A
Government enfranchising the negro, provid
ing tor his education, and giving ample guaran
tee for bis protection before the courts aud in
society, and under that Government should
send good men, who could take the 'lest oath,'
to Congress, would you admit her to representa
tion ?
"Without a moment's pause, he answered with
strong emphasis, 'No, sir, aud thus close j the
interview."
In the first place, we do not believe Mr.
Stevens ever dodged any fair question in his life.
If there is one quality preeminent iu his
organization, it is his manly, outspoken frank
ness. We also cannot bring ourselves to
believe that to suoh a question Mr. Stevens
would have made such a prompt and unquali
fied reply in the negative. He was probably
worn out by being catechised, and desired to
dismiss his questioner. But if it can be that
he does entertain the views imputed, he is
widely mistaken in believing that a corporal's
guard ot his party agree with him. In reply
to such a question, we feel authorized, in behalf
of the great mass of the Republican party, to
answer "yes." When such a condition is
reached in Alabama, or iu any other State,
as that supposed, they will be gladly
welcomed to Congress and reinstated
in all their old rights. Anl this we believe
would be consented to by every member of
Congress, including Mr. Stevens. If such
provisions as those supposed be not sufficient!
then we would like to kuow what more is re
quired f Any one who would still exclude the
South, would be in the position of the boy
who proposed to bet with another, agreeing
that "heads I win, tails you lose." "If you
refuse the conditions we propose you will be
denied representation, and if you assent you
will be refused admittance to Congress."
General Shebidan wiltcs a letter to General
Grant which has all the directness and since
rity of that great soldier's character. Sberl"
dan thinks that Mr.-SUnberv's interpretation
of the law in registration practically opens
"a broad and macadamized road for perjury
and fraud to tiavel on." The President wants
them to have a few more weeks to travel, to
which Sheridan objects. The President will,
no doubt, iuslst upon his construction of the
law. ; -
Who Is Marcus Otter! erg? The President has
made him Minister to Mexico. We don't believe
in ministers generally, but the country demanls
a statesman in 'Mexico. Marcus may be an
astonishing person, but he has not shown it.
It is said he is a partisan of Maximilian. Per
haps Mr. Seward fancies this will make him
acceptable to Juarez? Lewis D. Campbell,
John McGinnis, George W. McCracken, and
now Marcus Otterberg 1 '
It is reported that the Turkish Government
has again refused to comply with the request of
the great powers to cease hostilities against the
Cretans, and to have their grievances examined
by a Committee appointed conjointly by the
great powers and the Porte.
It is again reported that a considerable reduc
tion of the French army has been officially rej
solved npon. Thus, for once, Napoleon has set
an example which really deserves to be followed
by all the Governments of Europe.
